Are you using Windows XP? Just right mouse click on a blank desktop screen and click on properties then go to Settings tab and drag the pointer at the bottom to your desired resolution.

In Windows Vista is just right mouse button click on a blank desktop screen and select Personalize then go the Display settings if I remember right.
